Sorry for the lack of posts this past week. We have been busy moving and setting up a temporary location of our Whyte Avenue storefront in Edmonton as we are getting ready for an amazing renovation. Our temporary space is right beside the original location on Whyte avenue and up stairs in the Baalim block at 10444 82 Ave, 780439.1637.

This is the original gravitypope location and since we are turning 19 this July we wanted to make sure all is in place for some great events leading up to the big 2-0 in 2010. As with all of our locations, designer Peter Turner has sourced some amazing fixtures from Europe and North America and we are very excited for the reveal. Want to keep in the know?
